Who Can Print 3D Objects

Production Timeframe

Patrons are strongly advised to submit their files at least 5 business days in advance of important deadlines.

Production timeframe may vary depending upon such factors as the object's printer file itself, staff and device availability, and/or unexpected device or material issues that may arise. Thus, the CDS does not guarantee specific completion times.

Generally, objects are printed on a first-come, first-served basis; however, priority will be given to students printing objects related to graded assignments for a course in which they are currently enrolled.

Limitations

All patrons must comply with the University of Notre Dame Policy on the Responsible Use of Information Technology Resources (Policy 7.4). Examples of content that will not be produced includes, but is not limited to, the following:

Objects are in any way illegal, in violation of University rules/policies, or in violation of any applicable contracts/licenses (Policy Statement 2.1)

Objects that are part of production print jobs (large numbers of identical objects), as opposed to rapid prototypes (Policy Statement 2.3)

Objects that will be utilized for commercial purposes or for personal financial gain (2.4)

Objects that are obscene/offensive (except for officially approved, legitimate academic or University purposes) (Policy Statement 2.5)
